Make Me Move at the Barbican

Category: Art, Happenings, London

This summer the Barbican Art Gallery presents an ambitious exhibition of animation in all its glory. Spanning the past 150 years the extensive show includes works from such independent animators and studios as Étienne-Jules Marey, Walt Disney, Jan Švankmajer, Pixar, William Kentridge, Nathalie Djurberg and Studio Ghibli. Exploring the genre as a cultural phenomenon 170 iconic and lesser-known works will be on display. Divided into seven themes, visitors can trace animation’s history and influence from Percy Smith’s 1920′s time lapse photography to modern day CGI effects and immersive visual experiences. The show is sure to delight both those looking for information and those who want to be entertained.

Until 11th September 2011

Get to know your hood: Beverly Hills

Category: Archived, Art, Debauchery, Fashion, Los Angeles

90210 aka Beverly Hills is not only home to some “Real Housewives” but also the home of many snazzy restaurants, top dollar retailers, the mecca of cribs and, of course, the home of the infamous Rodeo Drive! In order to walk these star studded streets you must be dressed to impress; you never know who you might bump into. Always come armed with your biggest shades and your floppiest hat for paparazzi protection! And don’t leave home without your best Hudson jeans, and your favorite Boho top. Because one must always be paparazzi ready in the LA sun! 

Where to stop and where to shop:
1. The Thompson Hotel:  Talk about a good rooftop bar and pool! If you need to lounge and enjoy the view this is a great place to wet your whistle and look good doing it.
2. Coupa Cafe: If your looking to people watch in an urban oasis, Coupa cafe is your place! With an amazing Venezuelan menu this is a must see/must eat spot! And did I mention they also have a bar?
3. Rodeo Drive: The infamous strip of luxury! The yellow brick road of fashion! The place of shopping sins. From Louis V. to Gucci to Prada, all your designer needs are here with open arms and just a skip away. Beware and be warned!
4. Soho House: Member’s only! This is the  private club for all the LA socialites. I’m pretty sure it’s way better then the peach pit. Basically all the known come out to play here and it’s a prime location to hang, dine and socialize. This is the membership you should be asking Santa for because without it your missing out!
